I like this business because
(a) It is an independent business,
(b) Their charges for fuel are either equal to or lower than the competition,
(c) They offer compressed air without charge.
(d) They aren't part of a misleading advertising campaign which pretends to be quote "fuelling the movement to local" (whatever that may mean!)
(e) Until very recently they were allowing every £20 spend on fuel to accrue 1/10th of the cost of a car wash - sadly this offer has been withdrawn but in my mind the goodwill continues.

Motorcycle and Scooters

Southern 100 Road Races aka The Friendly Races (it does live up to the name).
Early in July every year, for over 60 years. Road Racing on the Billown course. On the roads to the NW of Castletown, Isle of Man. Solo and sidecar Classes.
Very good and well run event. Runs from Monday through to Thursday. Good viewing places around the course. Worth attending for the practice and races to view from different locations.
Usually the format is:
Monday practice in evening from 6:00pm
Tuesday practice followed by a few races from 6:00pm
Wednesday practice followed by a few races from 6:00pm
Thursday racing all day from after 9:30 am, take a short break for lunch.
The Southern 100 Club also have races pre (Classic) and post TT.

A Nice Place To Visit
We visited Douglas in a small holiday so for one day we went outside of the city to see other places. And Castle Rushen was a very nice stop for a couple of hours. The place is accessible by public transport, not too far from Douglas and not too big, not too small itself. It is a very nice page of history and discovered here nice things about Isle of Man history (and not only).

What a great location. Well worth a visit if you visit the island and have time

Crafts Shops

Really enjoyable afternoon. Staff very friendly and helpful, nothing is too much trouble. What's good about the mugs and plates they are all usable as each piece is fired. Don't know why I waited so long before I visited Craftwork Studio.

The staff in the butchers and Castle Deli are very helpful and the food is top quality, so if you are out and about in Castletown make this place one of your visits.

Not only the best butcher on the island, but they are friendly and helpful. They'll get you in anything you want, even obscure stuff (one can order horseradish root, for example) and they have game and fish and eggs and...you name it. All excellent quality.

Local DIY superstores and smaller Do It Yourself shops, decorating suppliers and ironmongers selling home improvement materials such as building supplies, paint, electrical and plumbing goods, etc. in IM9.

DIY

Co-op. Innit. UK visitors will have no surprises. Shopping for cans of beer at it's finest, even when 144 cans will not quite fit on your mororbike they will help you complete your mission. Really friendly staff. Enough said.

A tad cramped but great selection of food and drinks at reasonable prices

Hire Shops

Speedy boarding, great view of the run way in the waiting area, friendly staff. As far as airports go, I always have a good experience here.

Great little airport, suggest getting something to eat in before passing through security in the arrivals area. The small cafe in the departures lounge has limited options. A few more tables or a roller conveyor could be incorporated into the security area layout for ease of use.

Electrical Shops and services around Arbory

Garden Centres

This is a lovely little nursery with a good display of plants, seeds, pots and other essentials. Friendly knowledgeable staff. Very reasonable prices.

Rejuvenating small independent garden centre. Great plant stocks. Lovely staff who are very helpful. I recommend this garden centre above the other options on the island for its charm and plant variety.
